Maricella 1 review
San Francisco
$27 per hour for 1 child

Hello, my name is Maricella and I am passionate about caring for infants, toddlers, and children with special needs. I began studying child development and working in classrooms 12 years ago. Now that I have changed to a career in Tech I would like to continue fostering my passion for child care by supporting families in my community. Most recently I have provided regular care for twin boys from infancy to the age of two, as well as care for another infant over the past 9 months. My care includes daycare pick-ups, cooking, and pet care as well. I hope to help your family soon!

I highly recommend Maricella! She has been taking care of my 2.5 year-old on our occasional date nights, and she is absolutely the best!! My son adores her, and I always feel at ease knowing he’s in such caring and capable hands. She’s responsible, trustworthy, and so sweet with him. It’s clear she truly enjoys spending time with children. Every time I come home, I find him happy, safe, and well cared for. We feel very lucky to have found her!

Booked by 1 family in Brisbane, CA

I’m a mom of five amazing kids, ranging from elementary school to high school, with years of hands-on experience caring for children through every stage—from newborns and toddlers to teenagers. As a co-parent, I now have more flexibility in my schedule and would love the opportunity to support another family. I genuinely enjoy spending time with kids and miss the baby and toddler years. Whether it’s rocking a baby to sleep, reading stories, building forts, playing outside, helping with homework, preparing simple meals, or keeping bedtime routines on track, I’m happy to jump in wherever I’m needed. Families describe me as patient, dependable, calm, and nurturing. I understand that every child is unique, and I strive to create a safe, loving, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and parents feel confident leaving them in my care. I know firsthand how important it is to have someone you can trust, and I would treat your children with the same care and attention I give my own. I look forward to meeting your family and becoming someone you can count on.

Lovely and amazing! Would hire her again in a heartbeat :) girls loved her!

Hi everyone! I'm Tessa and I'm a recent grad from UC Santa Barbara who is originally from the Bay Area. I am offering childcare, pet care, and household services. I get along great with kids and have been babysitting/nannying since I was in high school. I have experience with infants, toddlers, and young kids, but am open to all ages! I have helped with school pick-up/drop-off, tutored, improvised fun games, and facilitated many a crafts! I grew up with three dogs, a cat, hamsters, and chickens, so I feel quite comfortable around most pets. I also work as a household assistant and can cook, clean, and run errands. Please let me know if you have any questions for me!

Booked by 1 family in Brisbane, CA

Hey! My name is Sana! I have a few years of experience with both dogs and cats. I grew up with two cats for most of my life and also lived with the most lovable golden doodle, Nala! Over the past three years, I’ve also helped pet sit for friends’ cats and dogs, and I’ve cared for my roommate’s dog, Nala, for multiple days at a time. I currently work in a hybrid position, so I’m in the office three days a week. On those days, I usually leave around 8 a.m. and return by 5 p.m. I’m very flexible with my schedule and can adjust my in-office days or visit times to fit your pet’s needs. I love meeting new furry friends and will always be patient and attentive to your pet’s needs. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! :)

Hi! I’m Gabby 👋 I’ve lived in the city for over a decade and have been caring for kids for 15+ years. I specialize in working with children ages 2 to 13, and I love bringing a bubbly, imaginative energy to everything I do. Whether it’s turning story time into an adventure, dancing around to music, or creating fun learning games, I make sure every moment is engaging, safe, and full of laughter. I’m CPR certified and also teach swim lessons, so safety and confidence are always top of mind. Families describe me as bubbly, creative, and reliable! Fun facts about me: 🎬 My favorite movie is K-Pop Demon Hunters & The Little Mermaid 🍕 My go-to snack is pizza 💃 I love dancing and swimming
